My best friend just passed away from cancer, at 22 years old.
I'm devastated but music is helping a little.
I know this is taboo but could I please get a few recs for music dealing with this subject matter..please and thanks.
So far these have been helping me cope..
City and color - little hell
Sun kil moon - benji
Nick Drake - pink moon
Eels - electro shock blues

Turbonegro - All My Friends Are Dead
i'm so sorry user, i can't imagine the pain you're going through.
songs about leaving by clarissa's wierd and wish you were here by pink floyd helped me through the loss of my beloved dog
>I know this is taboo
do you know where you are? also, The Antlers - hospice
If you like Sun Kil Moon also try his album "April"
>My best friend just passed away from cancer, at 22 years old.
Check out Matt Elliott for some sad songs my man. Not exactly about people dying but it's about the feeling it conveys.
hospice certainly deals w/ this subject

Get better soon.
Sorry to hear that user. Carrie and Lowell by Sufjan Stevens is a pretty tender record about dealing with loss. It's helped me out in some rough times and I hope it can do the same for you.
sorry about that op.
listen to some grouper
Haha glad he died

It was a female.
Thanks for reminding me I have that on my iPod.
I'm familiar with all his work.
Thanks for your input.
I'm biased towards him but I'll give his music another shot.
Thanks.. never heard of grouper what genre is it?
>I'm biased towards him but I'll give his music another shot.
Only Myocardial Infarction Can Break Your Heart is the best one imo.
Thanks for posting a link. This reminds me of Jeff rosenstock though not really my cup of tea.

Deathconciousness
Just checked it out. I like it a lot already. Thanks user.
Cheer up you fucking cunt, a lot of people die every day, you just don't care about them. Sorry for "your" loss.
>Deathconciousness
Also read that dank ass booklet.
Why bother when there's people like you too myopic to ascertain the difference between grief and despondency.
By your logic I should either be totally dismissive towards the issue because death is natural, either that or I should be upset everyday because people I don't know are dying and grieving too.
I'm heartbroken but my world isn't ending so what's your point in saying that?
Seek wisdom, that attitutde detracts from anything positive and I know it's summer but fuck you really had to type that out.
what cancer was it
This is why I become insensitive
Why show something human when you'll look like a meandering bitch.
Sun kil moon?

three tumors that were benign but they couldn't suppress the growth. It was probably the medication she was taking that did her in but I'm so sure as of right now.
One behind her spine, one in her heart on her aorta, and one near her ovaries.
how do i get cancer so i can die young, get unconditional love and max out a dilaudid tolerance
Aw come on man, wildflower wasn´t THAT bad
Ocean man is a super happy song, listened to it 24/7 when my dog died couple years back.

anything microphones/mount eerie
I'm really very sorry for your loss
She's in a better place yo. I... saw my mom's ghost, and she's fine... so I don't think the dead are unhappy. I know it means nothing. Seems like all the good ones die young. Have you poured out liquor for her? She must have been an amazing person.

i feel your pain, OP, i really do hope you get through this, i doubt your friend would want to see you suffer for too long, just take your time to mourn and readjust and you'll be ok.

the best way to listen to this album is exhausted, crying on your bed with headphones in and you fall asleep during the middle of it
sufjan stevens
romulus - youtube.com
flint for the unemployed and underpaid youtube.com
Casimir Pulaski Day - youtube.com
romulus and flint are just tender songs but casimir pulaski day is a song from the perspective of someone losing their lover to bone cancer, it's very touching.

this is about a man getting tortured to death in a shed in mexico, and the killer driving off into the distance, trying to wipe it from his memory; still makes me stop and listen to it every time, though, it commands attention
Microwave your balls, or start smoking and buy some radioactive shit from united nuclear and inhale/eat it.

this usually provided me with a significant consolation at dark times in my life
OP there is this stuff called Zembrin which is a natural SSRI with few side effects, if you become seriously depressed.

First off, I'm so fucking sorry to hear it dude, being no stranger to death I know it's awful. I hope you can get through it.
I'm generally recommending everything I've listened to while dealing with loss, you may not like them but I found them sorta helpful.
Current 93-Sleep has his house
Grandaddy-The Sophtware slump
Mount Eerie-Dawn
Bohren and der club of gore-Geisterfaust
Sibylle Baier-Colour green
Scott Tuma-Hard again
Of the wand and the moon-The lone descent
Red sled choir-Trades EP
I found these kinda helpful in similar situations, I can promise you the same but I wish you all the best, take care of yourself.
Grouper is very dreamy shoegaze, mostly centered around the concept of loss and disassociation.
Listen to dream loss and her most recent release, also Dragging a dead deer up a hill.
I second Scott Tuma's "Hard Again." Life-changing album.
depression has become a buzzword. it started spreading on tumblr and has even managed to influence the normie boards on Sup Forums. depression is not synonymous with sadness ok champ? If you were actually depressed your serotonin levels would be so low that you would feel the same type of emptiness from silence as you would listening to your favorite song.
sorry for your loss, but it's just death. Death (onto others) is very often out of your control and it happens naturally to anyone at any given time. I would be sad as fuck if my best friend died too but just remember attachment causes suffering. Just realize he's gone and that he'd want you to be happy after his passing. Be indifferent, not emotional
I can't put into words the level of bright emotion and euphoria it contains, it's so bright and simplistic. I always feel like I'm remembering childhood holidays in the outback while listening.

>Bohren and der club of gore
now THIS is melancholic music, just like death. I always chill the fuck out and listen to Piano Nights when I'm feeling sad or lonely
yeah op you're not really depressed just sad
God, guys, you don't know how he feels. Attachment is another way of saying love. Would you have him not love someone unconditionally, even if they're gone? You can't just turn off your feelings, and if it's not "clinical" depression it still hurts. Have some fucking tact guys, OP needs some support.
>Why bother when there's people like you too myopic to ascertain the difference between grief and despondency.
>By your logic I should either be totally dismissive towards the issue because death is natural, either that or I should be upset everyday because people I don't know are dying and grieving too.

Suppose I shouldn't have made the title depressed, but fuck I'm despondent and downtrodden right now.
Sad doesn't convey how I feel right now, but thanks for your jaded insight.
You can still love without becoming attached to someone/something.
I'm sorry it's just that when you've experienced clinical depression you feel insulted when others use 'depression' so lightly when 'sad' could be used. I have been through family member deaths before but real depression feels 100 times worse than grief
OP's case is special though because it's his best friend and he died so early, so of course he has my condolences and support. Good luck OP. I can recommend Dean Blunt - The Redeemer just because for some reason I've turned to his music when I've felt down, and it's a pretty great album
just krishnamurti up my thread senpai
No recommendation but sorry for your loss I hope she was happy before she passed
Shut up
Thank you, I know I'll be fine in a few days but right now I just want to take a lot of drugs..
And I know that won't fix my pain nor is it a good solution but I feel so empty right now I need something to fill the void I feel right now..
kk pal ;)
Marijuana and TV man. Don't forget to eat. And I know it sounds crazy but pouring alcohol for her and talking to her may help. She may even hear you if she decided to hang around before going to the light.
the first half of your post is good advice but the other half is sp00ky shit. the fuck man
